[Mr. Nerfect]

I like that idea, ThugLife. A weird idea that came to me last night was what if JBL played a psychotic type character. Not one that screams and runs in, etc., just one that's paranoid and needs to be champion.

I was just sitting around and thought, if instead of promising to just leave SmackDown! if he lost the title, he could've make it an unofficial "All or Nothing Match". JBl could have told us a story about how his father kicked him out on his ass, and told him he's going to send his son into the world with nothing, and he's not going to call him a son until he has everything and can look his father in the eyes and say "Respect me! I am superior!". JBL could tell us how he promised himself that he would never lose the title to a man like Booker T, and how his career started with him sitting next to Booker T on a plane, and promising that if he ever lost to this man, he may as well have nothing.

JBL then tells us that if his career is meant to go in a circle, by losing to Booker T at Survivor Series, he will not only hand Booker T over the WWE Championship, but he will never appear in wrestling again, he will kiss Booker's ass in the middle of that ring and he will sell his company and give the money to Booker T, personally. JBL informs us that after Survivor Series, whether or not he has the WWE Championship, his millions of dollars, or his Chief of Staff Orlando Jordan or not, he is going to his father's house in Texas. He's going to look him in the eye and demand his respect. If he can't respect a man with the WWE Championship, and if he can't respect a man that's as good as his word, and relinquishes everything when he loses, then this life is not worth living.

While this pretty much eliminates the idea of Booker T winning, it allows more passion to be fuelled into JBL. We learn how he needs the title to survive, and that he's been fighting for success his entire life. The match goes down the same way at Survivor Series, except maybe for the finish. Orlando could have gone for the belt shot, but Booker T grabs him for a Bookend, but Orlando chucks the belt to JBL, and Layfield goes for the shot to the back of Booker's head, but gets Orlando in the face with the title. Orlando is busted. Booker T capatalises with a kick to the gut, and then hits a Scissors Kick, with JBL's face getting implanted into the WWE Championship he's holding when he hits the canvas. JBL is busted. Booker T throws the title outside, but the recovering Nick Patrick sees the title in motion, and sees Orlando and JBL unconscious and bleeding, so he disqualifies Booker T. This creates much more of a screwjob finish, and allows JBL to pick up a win only be a miscommunication with the referee.

Anyway, JBL then cuts a promo about how he is a made-man with everything after putting it all on the line. He states it wasn't even a gamble. Orlando then grabs the mic after JBL says something and looks pissed off. He then asks JBL what happened to the idea of going and demanding respect from his father. Orlando then says it doesn't matter, because after Survivor Series Orlando flew in Mr. Layfield on JBL Airlines. Then a remixed version of "Longhorn" plays, and in a black limo with "GBL" (or another initial for JBL's father first-name, whatever it may be) and out of the driver's seat pops an latino driver, and opens a door then out comes a snazzy older version of JBL.

JBL's father cuts a promo about how he respects his son, and then hugs his father, and JBL has tears in his eyes and then hits the Clothesline from Hell on his exposed father. JBL beats on his father until trainers and referees get him off. JBL keeps yelling "It's about time!" and "I'm a made-man!". JBL then gets in his limo and drives away without Orlando Jordan.

Backstage Teddy Long abuses Orlando and says there will be punishment for this, namely JBL's stripping of the WWE Championship. JBL's father manages to get up and approaches Mr. Long, and tells him that his son only carried out Layfield tradition. JBL's superior to him now, so he got what he deserved, and JBL took everything from him. Theodore Long looks at JBL's dad like he's nuts, and says there will still be punishment. JBL's dad pleads with Teddy Long not to punish JBL, but test him and push him. Let him fight for all or nothing. Long gets a smirk and says he's got the perfect all or nothing scenario. At Armageddon there will be Booker T, Kurt Angle, The Big Show, Eddie Guerrero & The Undertaker in a Hell in a Cell.

Anyway leading up the six-man HIAC, we see some really weird stuff start to happen. JBL seemingly loses his sanity, painting the WWE Championship red, talking to himself, and at one stage he even tries to commit suicide to escape his reality. Orlando manages to stick by JBL, though, and refocuses him into the match and being WWE Champion.

Anyway, they run a storyline where JBL's used all his lifelines. He's even sold his soul to the devil for the gift of a strong Clothesline. Then we see JBL dye his hair black, and get an evil smirk on his face. He's got a plan. At Armageddon we either see JBL go completely nuts as he doesn't have a plan and loses the title to Kurt Angle or The Undertaker, or we see Booker T get paid by JBL to willingly lose the match, starting a "You Sold Out" thing. Maybe even a tag team run with Orlando Jordan? The last option is The Dead Man willing jobs to JBL, and we see that JBL has started a new Ministry. The Undertaker has realised he is too old to be considered "The Dragon", and JBL has everything, and is already confirmed to feed the darkness when his time comes to lose everything. It turns out, though, that JBL tricked The Undertaker and assaults him with the help of Heidenreich, The Dudleys, Rob Van Dam (who joins Heyman at Armageddon), Orlando Jordan and/or Booker T.

The Undertaker would then win the WWE Championship at either the Royal Rumble or No Way Out, and more than likely would be challenged by Kurt Angle at WrestleMania.

I don't know. I don't really like the idea, but it's one that poses as intrigueing in my mind. It just came to men when I was bored. I just connected JBL's past, Hell in a Cell, The Undertaker getting closer to the end and the WWE Championship/money together and came up with that. Weird, I know.
